The project builds on a focused Innovation Vision Action Plan (IVAP) and combines variety to activities such as Entrepreneurship and Innovation Capacity Development Program for students and staff; start-up and mentor support; mapping of entrepreneurship and innovation courses, support for curricula and pedagogical tools development; mapping of institutional entrepreneurship and innovation support structures, practices and policies; creation of new partnership activities and development of an idea bank and videos. Through peer to peer leaning, co-creation and sharing of good institutional practices the project strives to create systematic impact, build institutional innovation and entrepreneurship capabilities, create strong partnerships and facilitate the knowledge transfer across HEIs beyond the NOBALIS project period.
